Masters Program Grant or Scholarship

I am looking to enroll in an online Masters Program - Educational Media Design & Technology. However, I am trying to find some type of grant, scholarship, or something to help pay for it. I am a teacher and really would like some extra funding to help pay the cost. Are there any grants and/or scholarships for educators/teachers? Besides those teaching in low-income areas or Title 1 schools.

The Federal government does not generally provide grants to small businesses.
Grants.gov provides financing for educational institutions rather than individuals. Your best bet would probably be to apply for a loan.
The U.S Department of Education has loan programs to help students pay for their education. You can also use the Loans and Grants search tool to find general financing opportunities.

I agree, the college's financial aid dept should guide you in the right direction. You can also fill out a Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) which is the general application for all federal money offered. Apply as early as possible, as the money goes quickly! A rminder: never ever pay to apply for any type of loan or scholarship, they are usually scams! Hope this helps.

Sustaining education indeed requires funds on every student. Continuing studies sometimes has problem due to financial needs. Some solutions like online loans or any loan application will help in pursuing education.
